Answer:

The answer is E.

Explanation:

In a public company, the directors are the agents of the company while the shareholders are the principals(owners) of the company. Because most times, shareholders doesn't have the needed skills and experience to run businesses, they employ director/management (agent) to run their businesses. Most times there is conflict of interest, for example, the managers might prefer a risky business while the shareholders might prefer less risky, this type of scenario creates agency problem.

Agency problem (principal-agent problem) is a conflict of interest that happens when the directors (agent) don't fully represent the best interest of the shareholders (principal)

So all the options in the question represents agency problem.

Colgate-Palmolive Company has just paid an annual dividend of $ 1.50$1.50. Analysts are predicting dividends to grow by $ 0.12$0
klio [65]

Answer:

The price does the​ dividend-discount model predict Colgate stock should sell for​ today is $66.47

Explanation:

In order to calculate the price does the​ dividend-discount model predict Colgate stock should sell for​ today we would have to calculate first the Present value of dividend of next 5 years as follows:

Present value of dividend of next 5 years as follows=

Year Dividend Discount factor Present value      

a             b          c=1.085^-a             d=b*c      

1 $       1.62 0.921659 $       1.49      

2 $       1.74 0.849455 $       1.48      

3 $       1.86 0.782908 $       1.46      

4 $       1.98 0.721574  $       1.43      

5 $       2.10 0.665045 $       1.40      

Total                                   $       7.25

Then, we have to calculate the Present value of dividend after 5 years as follows:

Present value of dividend after 5 years=D5*(1+g)/(Ke-g)*DF5

Present value of dividend after 5 years=$2.10(1+6%)/(8.50%-6%)* 0.665045

Present value of dividend after 5 years=$59.22

Current value of stock=Present value of dividend of next 5 years+ Present value of dividend after 5 years    

Current value of stock= $7.25+$59.22      

Current value of stock=$66.47        

The price does the​ dividend-discount model predict Colgate stock should sell for​ today is $66.47

The impacts of the fur trade on society in terms of economics, culture, technology, nature, and the government changed over the time.

Rockefeller never act unethically by the standards of his day or today´s.

There is nocontradiction between his personal and business ethics.

The fur trade was a vast commercial enterprise, which was at its peak for nearly 250 years, from the early 17th to the mid-19th centuries, sustained to satisfy the demand in an intensely competitive trade which opened exploration and settlement, financing missionary work, established social, economic and colonial relationships between Europeans and Indigenous people.

Changing cultural in the fashion industry, has had a drastic evolution over the years, when a woman in the first half of the twentieth century , might be very proud to wear a fox stole with its head and feet intact but today, it would consider  that an ethical faux pas.

Ethics has become a major consideration for young people in their selection of work and career, who demand enshrined values in their business  model, a difference, contributing with their core values, conscience, and personality not just profit.By the standards of his day Rockefeller, a faithful, balanced and devout Christian, was not being unethical as he always followed his-time regulations and laws, although nowadays they are more severe.  He compensated all the things he did, if wrong, with his contributions to help people cope with any damage done. There is no contradiction behe did as he had been taught when he was younger that he should separate business from pleasure.
